According to multiple reports, the installation is scheduled to take place on Sunday, December 21st.
Aside from Seyi, the Alaafin will also be installing a senator from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdul'Aziz Yari, the lawmaker representing the Zamfara West senatorial district, as the Obaloyin of Yorubaland.
This installation of Seyi Tinubu as a chief comes two weeks after the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, conferred the First Lady, Remi Tinubu, with the chieftaincy title of ‘Yeye Asiwaju Gbogbo Ile-Oodua.'
"It was with immense joy that our nation witnessed the installation of the first lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, CON, as the Yeye Asiwaju Gbogbo Ile-Oodua," he said.
